    Hey guys, I have been using Google SketchUp for awhile now, been designing a lot of stuff with it. Now I started drawing a template of parts in a 2D view, because I heard somewhere I can convert them straight over to PlasmaCam.

    I have found a couple plugins online, but when I install them the way it says, I still can't quite get them to work.

    I am basically trying to make it so I can export a file from Sketchup as a DXF file, or a CAD drawing, that is readable by the plasmacam software. I want to do this simply because it is MUCH easier to draw on Sketchup then it is straight on Plasmacam.

    Any help of how I can get this to work would be greatly appreciated.
